While I was Down Under, it was quite difficult for me to access my blog, let alone write or comment. But a couple of weeks ago, I discovered that my good friend Linda who writes the wonderful blog Ayak’s Turkish Delight had passed on this award to me. Thank you for this, dear Ayak. I had to put it on the back burner however before I could pass it on myself.

| here it is |
But now here I am back in a very cold and snowy Istanbul so it’s the perfect moment for me to continue: this award is given to those whose blogs are a ‘good read’ which Linda’s certainly is. I like that criterion!
This award is being passed around the blogosphere so that we can discover other blogs that we may not have noticed before, in particular those that have less than 200 followers. I have to choose 5 blogs to receive this award and the following are just a few of the blogs I enjoy.
Those receiving the award should feel no obligation to pass it on but please put the award on your sidebar. Should you wish to give it to 5 of your favourite blogs, then please do a post linking back to the person who gave it to you and inform the people whose blogs you have chosen.
I love Turkey-related blogs and I think the following are all good reads:
These blogs are all written by people that I know now or knew before, when they lived in Istanbul.
But I also want to include Meditation- Cradling the Crying Child which is my sister’s blog and not at all connected with Turkey!
I think sharing links to other blogs is a great idea otherwise how will we know what’s out there? Thanks, Ayak!
welcome back and thanks for all the links. i am checking them out now!
